[edit] Mission

Removed the following because it needs considerable editing work, and it is unclear where it came from: "The Mission of the Dokuz Eylül University can be defined best with the goals of the university:

• What kind of education, student, society, and world does our university aim? What kind of education? Research-oriented, creative and student-based education, which does not dictate knowledge, but teaches the ways to reach information, gives importance to team work, tries to keep student-staff interaction at high levels.
• What kind of Student? Intellectual individuals with developed communication skills, who use their mind, don’t hesitate to ask questions, dream and think, and are hardworking, productive and creative, sensitive to social problems, respectful to their essential values.

[edit] Misinformation

According to the article, Dokuz Eylul University "has the second biggest learning resources center in the world and the biggest university library among Turkish universities." As a faculty member of the mentioned university, I do not think that it has the second biggest resources center in the world. There are at least two other universities in Turkey which have bigger resources centers, let aside the universities of the world. In addition, it does not have the biggest university library in Turkey. I know that Bilkent University in Ankara has a much bigger library than that of Dokuz Eylul University. There may be other universities in Turkey which have bigger libraries than ours. The sentence needs to be removed. Regards... 81.214.163.246 19:46, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

If we ignore the language mistake in the sentence "It's has the top quality education in its departments with the help of new education technologies which makes Dokuz Eylul University stay in top ten universities in the country.", it includes a judgment, and, therefore, does not fit the criteria of Wikipedia. 81.214.163.246 19:50, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

I have removed the above-mentioned sentences. 81.214.163.246 19:53, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
